Holy shoot. Thanks man. Same family owns that truck stop. Old man died and it'd his sons. I'm not sure if somebody is still brokering there
Yeah in my mind pulling permits for a load is more than its worth. Just my opinion. And if it's big enough you have to get a pilot service. Rather...
Thanks man I appreciate it. It's really a big step for my wife and I, we talked about it from a million different views it seems like. As soon as...
"The usdot states all moving parts must be secured by mechanical restraint if the moving parts cannot be secured by the device itself." That...
Attached image is the section it's in. I paraphrased it, read through you'll see my paraphrasing is correct. The way I phrased it covers all machinery
I agree with you 100%. Now I'm more confused hahaha. I'm not trying to be a jerk as well. I think the integrity of conversations gets lost in text.
